Backyard hibachi is still the most common San Rafael booking — the chef needs roughly an 8 by 8 foot clear area and works fine on grass, patio, deck, or driveway.

Is this hibachi or teppanyaki, and what does the chef actually cook?
It is Japanese teppanyaki cooked on a flat-top hibachi grill — the same style as a hibachi restaurant, run in your own space.
